Team Geneva at El Refugio

We had a great first day at El Refugio with the Geneva team. The team consists of Junior and Senior high school students from Geneva Illinois. 34 students and 8 sponsors are on the team.
We began the day with an orientation time, explaining the ministry of El Refugio, then we had an adventure race.  After lunch we began our work projects and ended the day with a great time of praise and worship around the fire and a great devotional on:
Romans 12:1-2 (NIV) 
¹ Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God--this is your spiritual act of worship.
² Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.

These verses will be the theme of our devotions for this trip.
